Hello,

It's Friday and I am trying to listen to some tunes while @ work. For the past few weeks I have been trying to listen to streaming music as well as music that has been downloaded to my hard drive. For some reason at unknown times the music just stops in the middle of playing and i am forced to restart the songs, or hit the play button again while listening to streaming music. This should not happen as I am on a T1 with only 15 other people in the office, and my pc is a 1.5 GHZ PIIIwith 512 megs of ram. Any suggestions. I have been using Winamp and MusicMatch Jukebox and both have the same problem. I have recently uninstalled both of them. Any suggestions?

The server you are down loading from will divide it resources among all the users downloading from it. If too many users are involved the time between turns grows to long and pauses occur on your end. If the time slice is too long the stream will stop and your connection to the server may even be dropped.
